Application Documents
During the online application, you will be asked to enter information regarding your current and permanent address, your CV with photo, your education (recent and previous enrollment) and academic background, language proficiency, honors, awards, and motivation. You should also indicate up to five research groups of the program you find particularly interesting.
The online application tools will allow you to upload relevant documents electronically (supported file types are: pdf, jpg, jpeg, gif, png). Your application will only be further processed if at least the following documents have been uploaded:
- CV with photo.
- Transcript/mark sheet.
- Certificate/diploma for any completed course of studies for which the degree certificate has already been issued.
You can also upload an English language or GRE certificates if available. All submitted documents must be in English or German. Certified copies of documents are not required for the application (i.e. regular copies are sufficient). Only upon admission to the program, all relevant documents (e.g. diploma, transcripts) must get certified. This can be done, for example, by the dean's or registrar's office of your university, a German embassy or consulate, or a public notary.
In addition, you will be asked to indicate the contact data of two referees who will write letters of recommendation for you. You should inform the referees about your intention to apply to the program several weeks in advance. Only letters of recommendation which reach the university by January 18th can be considered in the evaluation of your application. In case your recommendation letter(s) doesn't reach the university in time, your application will still be processed and evaluated based on the documents available. The referees suggested by you will receive an automated e-mail request from the university at the e-mail address you indicate. This request will be posted as soon as you submit your complete application.
